  2. Re:The Myth of the 80 Hour Week on On Point On Slacking · · Score: 0, Troll

    "Then you've obviously never met a factory worker as I used to be, and as such, I have to say this is BS. 30-40 hours? You try that shit on an assmebly line --- the work literally never stops coming, not even for a minute. You don't have time to think, you barely have time to breathe. Don't give me this "you should work harder" shit; you truly cannot work any harder in a job like that because you have to work as hard as you absolutely can to keep up at all. If you don't keep up, you don't keep the job. Vacation? 1 single week a year and you have to have been working there at elast 3 years to get paid for that vacation. Or don't factory workers count? Because if there weren't any factory workers you wouldn't have even half of everything you have now, inlcuding the parts in your computer."

    Perhaps this was in indonesia? or a new york basement sweatshop? Or did you forget to mention your Union based pay?
    Either you are 150 years old, foreign, spineless or are exagerating a bit here bud.
    If in fact you had such a position within my lifetime you were in a very rare one, Kudos for deciding to leave it ;) It would have taken me less than 80hours to decide unless directed to remain at gunpoint.

    Unfortunately if EVERY american voted. Doctors performing abortions would be put to death, the lords prayer would be said 3 times a day in schools, and children would be taught that the earth is 11thousand years old.....I wouldn't be surprised to see the president waving a rattlesnake around during an address either. Sad but not far off.

  10. boondoggle on Sarbanes-Oxley Costs Exceed Benefits · · Score: 2, Informative

    I believe SOx was indeed well intended, however if you have ever dealt with these auditors you would quickly realize that in practice SOx ended up as a boondoggle to a few very large accounting firms. I have actually dealt with "auditors" who requested(upon me asking about where he was based and that I speak the language) I speak in spanish, as they were based in mexico city on contract...He then asked for a screenshot of /etc/passwd, not the file itself mind you a screenshot of a pwd at the path! Not that the file would do much good as my boxes are all trusted . Idiots driving idiots

    A true shame if this ends up being another theme skinned shooter FPS repeat.

  13. Re:Answer is easy. on Americans Are Seriously Sick · · Score: 1

    I beg to differ. Every hospital I have been to in Arizona charges MUCH less if you pay cash. This is similar to the way windshield replacement companies charge your insurance company 700dollars for a windshield replacement and give you 25 steak dinners for the chance to rob your insurance company. Example. I have no healthcare my Woman does... We go to the same allergist together. We get identical prescriptions. I pay 55dollars in cash and 60bucks for my meds. She pays a 10dollar copay and her insurance gets charged 325dollars. She pays 5 dollar copay for her meds her insurance gets charge 120dollars. Who is getting robbed in the long run here? Do you think for a moment the cash I handed them, that went into a small lockbox was even recorded properly? doubtful. There appears to be a culture of deceit running rampant in healthcare, I would hazard a guess that this trickles down from our friends at glaxo-smith-kline-burroughs-welcome-we-own-your-wa llet etc... O yes and my dentist does work after hours for cash only...

  15. Fat guys in tabi boots on Wisdom From The Last Ninja · · Score: 1

    I saw a group of these "followers" following the dalai lama around(they took it upon themselves to "protect" him) when I saw him speak years ago. Not a one of them had under 35% body fat. Pretty funny watching guys in black outfits and tabi boots "sneaking" about in an auditorium under flourescent lighting.

  17. Unfortunately this is not new or next generation. on Next Generation Spam Zombies Will Use Data Mining · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I regularly recieve emails of exactly this nature to several addresses I use to deal with shady/or poorly managed state agencies. I noticed address mining of this sort at least 16 months ago. I typically know that a given shop will be calling for some sort of aid when I start getting my own (slightly modified and links added) back with own signature attached(once again slightly mispelled).
